i'm not saying all you need is pure intelligence to get into and get through medicine, you do also need to work hard, but some people are naturally more cleverer than others, there's no denying that, two people can work equally as hard but one will be able to learn things better and memorize things for longer than the other, that's not just techniques, its genetics too..gosh, people, take a chill pill....! my opinion and i'm entitled to it
